The Anderson Broken Down.

Seattle P.-I- Of .SmndGy.l
Probably no steamer on Puget Sound.
with pro badly one exception, has seen SO
many years Of active service, and prob
ably no steamer on Puget Sound has
earned anything like so much money as
the faithful old Eliza Anderson. For
mare than twenty years, and up to "a
short time ago, she belonged to the
Wrights. About one year since the
Washington Steamboat company pur-
| chased her for $4,000, and for several
months have been running her on the
! route between Vancouver, terminus OF
| the Canadian Pacific railway, and Seat
| tie. She has enjoyed lucrative trade,
forthcoming and going with full freight
] and large passenger lists.
Last evening, while On her way to this
city, with all the freight that could be
crowded into her, and when just off
Point No Point, her crank pin broke,
after which sad havoc was played with
! her machinery. Two large cast iron
steam pipes connected with the engine
broke short off, the walking beam was
| cracked in several places, and other
damage done to the engine and machin-
cry. The fireman escaped horrible
death almost miraculously. He had
mace before the accident, and at the time
the steam pipes burst he was climbing
on deck to get some fresh air. Had he
been in the fire room he surely would
have been scalded to death.
As it turned ont, however. no one was
injured. The tug Cyrus Walker, which
was only about three miles off, was sig
nailed, aud ten minntes thereafter had
the Anderson in tow for Seattle. No
survey of the injuries have yet been made,
but q well posted steamboat man. sand !:
